Mr B's review
Prepare yourself for the strangest, funniest science fiction adventure story of the year! Tapper Watson is no hero, he just reads about them in his books, safely in his own world. But when he ends up on a wild adventure to Earth, he is forced to reckon with everything he thinks he knows… as assassin lobsters chase him and his ragtag group of scoundrels through space.
Description
Tapper Watson is just an ordinary Erisean boy who loves adventure stories. But when one of his sixty-seven cousins sends him away on a smugglers’ submarine through the River Lethe to other worlds, he just wants to go home again.
On an unscheduled visit to Earth he meets Fern Shakespeare, and a talking plant called Morse, and their adventures begin. And when he finds himself being chased through worlds by a pair of trigger-happy lobster mobsters in search of the mysterious Nemo Machine, Tapper begins to realise that he might not be so ordinary after all…
